This may be a silly question, but I have never noticed my girls do this before.. BUT, when I walked past their cage, (I think I suprised them), I noticed one of our girls turn her back to the other and literally she sprayed urine straight out, almost hitting my other poor girl in the face.. Can...

My hubby is at Kmart looking at this cube set for making our quarentine cage bigger. I know I read that Kmart grids are unsafe, but this brand is different. Can someone help tell me if this brand is safe. It is called, Stor Floor Standing Storage Unit - 6 Cube Set. I would link it to Kmart, but...

I was just thinking about how blessed I am to be about 4-5 hour round trip close to The Critter Corral in Steger, Ill and that I will be able to adopt 2 precious girls from them this Saturday! Got me thinking, that it would be nice for everyone to maybe talk about their favorite rescue or what...

I was just reading how people look at Craigslist for guinea pigs and so I decided to look in my area.. I was immediately appauled to see a person who has a pic of a snake who is asking for live rodents, rabbits and guinea pigs to feed his snake.. He stressed live! He says PETA freaks stay away...

We have expanded our floortime area with using our daughter's old play yard, it is like a fence if that makes sense. It looks roughly like a 2.5 x 6 area. They are just having a blast. We have their hay, pellets, water and veggies in there, chew sticks and a tunnel. We decided to take out their...

I noticed the last few days that the pigs poops were normal and some very dry and small looking. But this morning I lifted up the pigloo to vaccumm and noticed several normal poops then some which looked clumped together.. I am not sure they stepped in them and squished them or it this a sign of...

Can someone explain to me what Pyometra is, how it is diagnosed, how to treat or cure it? Our new vet called and is worried this could be what is wrong with our two piggies. I could not find a lot about it..

I was just getting done doing my weekly full cage cleaning and was wondering how long it takes everyone to do theirs? Mine took an hour, not sure if it is because I have stacked 2x4's, making it a little longer of a process or how I do it? I vaccum it very good first, take everything out, remove...

I am sorry if I may have posted this in the wrong category, I could not figure where to place it. If you turn on the National news you will see that Wisconsin is under some serious weather at the moment and is not far away from me! Tornados breaking out about 40 minutes from me and heading my...

We have a 2x3, 2 level cage with one 1 x 2 addition. We are currently adding another 1 x 2 level, so that each level has the addition, which would make it 2 x 4 on each level. But what is this considered in square footage then being a 2 level. My husband and I are having a debate on the square...

I hope I am putting this in the right forum, because I guess it could either go in bedding or cage, so I am sorry if I may have put it in the wrong forum, but I think I made the right choice.. We have a 2x3 cage, 2 level, both 2 x 3. We are adding on a 1x2 level to each level, one for a kitchen...

I was just sitting here thinking about how much I have done for my pigs in the last 2 months of having them. Our family loves them so much, it is like having more family members, lol. My mom even calls them her new Grandchildren and buys them presents. I have spent so much money on their care...

I bought today a Living World Log Cabin for my piggies today. It says safe to chew, but I do not trust this always just because it says it on the box. It is made of real wood. I noticed though when I put it in, my one guinea pigs started to sneeze the minute she went in it. She used to sneeze...

We have been introducing our guinea pigs to lettuce, (not iceberg), cilantro, cherry tomatoes and bell peppers so far. We are working on more. So far I have been feeding them 2-4 stems of cilantro and they seem to love it, for each pig. I was wondering how much total could they have of this? I...

I know this is a silly question, but my piggies are 5 months old, they just came off of a URI and a UTI when I got them. They played a ton when I first got them their 2 level 2x3 cage with a 1 x 2 kitchen, now they seem to just eat and sleep. Our cage has 2 pigloos, a kitchen area, a PVC tunnel...

Just curious where everyone buys their fleece? We bought some anti pill from from a local nationally known fabric store, but they had very limited selection where I live. I have been trying to find some Polka dot fleece like brown with pink polka dots or other colors on the brown background. I...
